It was a warm, friendly and wonder time at the Grey Whale house. The rooms were great, kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Plenty of room for the kids and adults. Loved the decks and game room. The yard was amazing and the dog friendly blankets for the furniture was a great touch. We will rent this house again!

Coastal gem

The Gray Whale was beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for a weekend getaway. We could hear the ocean waves from the house. Super comfortable and accommodating for my friends and I. I would definitely recommend staying here. Hot tub outback was a bonus.

Quiet neighborhood & comfy home

We had three nights at Grey Whale and it was lovely. The host left good instructions and recommendations. The house had comfortable beds, lots of kitchen equipment, newly renovated bathrooms, and many games. The kitchen had an amazing appliance pantry with anything a chef could want! The garage laundry & ping pong space would benefit from better lighting. We loved that we could bring our dog along on vacation. We all enjoyed the beautiful Mendocino area!

Great house for family

The property is large and private at the end of a dead end street. The house is spacious enough for our family of 5 adults and 3 small kids. The kitchen was stocked and clean and had everything we needed. The kids loved the game room in the garage and the second living room upstairs. The balconies offer slight ocean views and were a perfect place to have coffee and get some fresh ocean air. We enjoyed the house during our stay and would come again.

We appreciated the location to the activities we wanted to do up there and it being dog friendly. Kitchen was well-appointed and someone came to replace an easy appliance that wasn’t working so quickly! (We appreciated that!) There are a few cobwebs and it has that expected coastal smell. Beds and pillows weren’t the best, and one room didn’t have an accurate description of the bed size. (Fortunately, 3rd couple had a van with a bed they could use instead.) But, it didn’t take away from the overall use. It was nice not to feel like we were super close to nearby neighbors, and we had a great weekend away!
